Nicolas: Pedro followed the triage how-to's and documentation, which was set 
out ages and ages ago. (I've not re-read them in a while. If I need to, please 
put an email out on the bugsquad list.) I myself have closed bugs because I've:
1) Asked a question, which has not been answered.
and
2) Waited 30 days.

We do it, to 1) try and poke someone in giving us relevant information
(there's nothing quite like "status =  New > Invalid" in an email to get
someone moving!), and 2) to keep our bug lists clear of those bugs on
which we are NOT actively working on. (I, when I'm triaging, tend to
open a FF tab for each bug which is still New/Incomplete.)

Personally, I'd have probably searched for an upstream report, and if I
hadn't found one, submitted one myself, or tagged the bug as needing to
go upstream, rather than closing it, but Pedro followed the triager's
sequence. (And I will defend his actions here to the hilt, as I have
closed bugs in this manner myself, using the exact same template
response that Pedro used.)
